2017 Annual Meeting Sponsorship - Ambassador Level

The NPA Annual Meeting is the only national meeting and networking event dedicated to the postdoctoral community. The event has grown over the years and we anticipate approximately 500 attendees, including postdocs, administrators, and faculty. Disciplinary societies, industry, and organizations attend from across the nation.

There are several opportunities for sponsorship that will allow companies, institutions, associations, and societies to connect with postdoctoral researchers in a meaningful way. Postdoctoral scholars conduct research and support discovery in biomedical sciences, physical sciences, social & behavioral sciences, and humanities. They represent the next generation of academia and industry.

In 2017, we are hosting our Annual Meeting at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, CA.

By participating as a sponsor of the 2017 Annual Meeting, your organization will enjoy a number of benefits, including full recognition in meeting materials and exposure among Annual Meeting attendees. Your sponsorship will support the meeting, create goodwill, and increase awareness of your name at their organizations. You will want to connect with our postdocs from the across the country because postdocs are the driving force in the global research enterprise and will be tomorrow's leaders in innovation. This is a great opportunity to meet them in the early stages of their careers.
